Zing process for people to give thought

that in learning rules of conduct without

which consists in having lady and gen

Courtesy is simply the due recognition
of the fact that there are other people in

anything one pleaSes that does not inter
iere with rights or comforts OF others.
The code of forms by which courtesy is
expressed va..es from age to age and
among different peoples. Its attainment
is not difficult; the ordinary phrases of
civility are the common currency of so
ciety and no one can afford to be igno
rant of them. The excuse often made
for persons of rude manners that after

Important Litigation Ended.

The inhabitants of Brighton, through

Skowhcgan, have just completed an i'm
portant settlement against their town.
The claims were in the form of execu-
lions, and arose on account of loans which
were made to the town and never fully
paid. There has been considerable litiga
ton in regard to them and they promised
to be the source of much more. The hold
err of the claims, Mr.. ii. ID. Eaton, and the
selectmen of the town, came to an under
standing by which he accepted fifty per
cent. of the face Of the execution in full
satisfaction thereof. The town paid cash
down and so the matter Is now ended.
